So yeah, lately, I've been seeing a lot of fanart of "Zero Suit Fox"; as in, Star Fox's Fox McCloud in the Zero Suit of Metroid's Samus, often Rule 63'd. Where did this come from?

I don't know where specifically, but I can almost guarantee it came from someones mental wank bank.

So I'd leave it at that, if i were you.

Where did what come from?

....

yeah

...

...why are you looking at me like that?

Nah seriously: things like that come and go - might be a new startup meme, but my google-fu seems to indicate otherwise [http://knowyourmeme.com/forums/meme-research/topics/27774-zero-suit-fox].

Considering it's in the title of the game, it seemed like it shouldn't be hard for anyone to know where it came from.

Now where the weird fetish came from? Idk, typical bowels of Internet hell.

Mmm, not even knowyourmeme got concrete proof of its origin. This is all I got at the most-

It was bound to happen. The Smash Brothers series has created all sorts of... galleries out there.

*giggles intensely*

I think some person was like, "Well, I like drawing Rule 63 Fox McCloud and my fans/followers want me to draw her in Zero Suit form... Why not? I mean, it's not like it's going to catch on or anything..."

...And then it did...

But seriously, I have been following this person[footnote]That NSFW bits, yo...[/footnote] who may or may not have started this... or may or may not have made it a thing somehow...

Note: I may or may not be enjoying this while it last, by the way...

I joined Tumblr at the right time! All this interesting stuff to follow.

OT: I'd always assumed it was natural outgrowth, but it's really fascinating to see how people are digging into the origins of this. It's like an archaeological dig, but for stuff that's actually fun to study (Oooooh, burn, no jk I love archaeology).

Jeez Christ, who chooses to follow one of the biggest Rule 34 porn artists on their public Facebook?

Jeez Christ, why would you want to follow Shadman, everything he draws (short of the last few months, I give him credit how much better he's gotten) is so... anatomically awful and the coloring is usually garbage. It took the guy three years to learn how to properly draw a torso with an actual ribcage, and he still struggles with drawing muscles, making heads too big, using inconsistent light sources on his scenes, drawing backgrounds that aren't flat and completely disconnected from the people in the foreground, knowing how boobies protrude or change in poses, and successfully making anything below the sternum look human. I get this impression he sits down and draws everything in one sitting in less than hour, and jeez dude, no, you have to put more effort into that a lunch break!

I can tell a Shadman piece by how deep in the uncanny valley the drawings are from first glance. The only thing Shadman has over other Rule 34 artists is a much more consistent time schedule and a reliable site.

I've only seen one fanart of that and it was on Newgrounds, and considering the artist in question I wasn't at all surprised. I was unaware this was a whole phenomenon.

Some of his non-Rule34 porn crap I like. Besides I've more or less managed to keep that hidden from my public page.

Well, that's something I could have gone on not knowing about. I decided to google image this thing and I regret it. Just... I don't understand. Why? I just don't get it. Goddamn Rule 63 or whatever the hell Rule it is. I guess it comes from someone saying "Why the hell not?" I just... nope, I'm out.

I've never heard of this one before. I did, however, see some fanart of Peach in a Zero Suit and Samus looking kinda peeved in a dark blue version of Peach's gown :3

As I understand it, here's what happened: During the whole "Samus has weird techno NERF stripper boots" thing that was going down, people started attributing all kinds of 'sexy' things to other Smash characters to point out the clear hypocrisy in what's acceptable from one character to another. One picture had everybody in her boots, and then as a mutation of that, somebody started throwing the Zero Suit, boobs and all, on other characters. This quickly caught fire as furries don't get gendered quite as hard in the facial region and it turned from a joke into a legitimate fetish fuel... thing. I've also seen a Falco version, and even more hilariously, a Peppy version.
